Druridge Bay Visitor Centre + Mental Health Retreat 2016 Druridge Bay County Park is located on an ex-open cast mine alongside a series of nature reserves stretching the length of the bay. This landscape has an incongruous historical, social narrative wrestling between its current identity of an area of protected natural habitats and that of a still salient post-industrial landscape.

The proposed visitor center and hostel will focus on the well being of the natural landscape and the those affected by the idustrial past of the north east in terms of depression operating as a hostel for mental health recovery utilising the beautiful landscpae and views promoting the beneficial idea of being outside and taking part in the activities of Druridge bay. This will be teamed with a visito center with educational and exhibitional spaces to promote and teach visitors about the local habitats and the importants of nature in an attempt to allow this knowledge to spread further and showcasing the activites on offer in the lake and along the bay giving the oportunity for different groups to take part subsequently bringing a communal presence back to druridge bay.

Axis + Thresholds Along Lake
The scars left upon the context both socially and environmentally are still seen today. The Druridge Bay Visitor Centre and Mental Health Retreat seeks to manage, rectify and restore the two negative outcomes from this once thriving manufacturing presence; the increase in depression in the surrounding towns and villages alongside the environmental scars left from the heavy industrial past.

The Observatory_ Allenheads Contemporary Arts 2015 Designed in conjunction with a group of 5 other part 1 students from Northumbria university as part of a live build competition set up by the allenheads contemporary art center and xsite architects in Newcastle upon-tyne. This Project was shortlisted into the final stages of judging and sunbsequently displayed In Cooper studio’s in Newcastle. The aim of the observatory was to provide a platform to experience Allenheads’ remarkable skyscape, allowing the resident and community stargazers to observe the night sky in a dedicated and comfortable environment. Involvement of both experienced individuals and the wider community was essential to the success of the project. In order to reinforce this concept, the community would be involved in not only the use, but the construction and development of the observatory. An inclusive community project from its conception.

Recycled timber is charred to form the exterior of the observatory. Its resilience to the environment and ample supply make it a suitable solution that not only keeps costs down, but embodies the ethos of the building as a whole; a simple, environmentally friendly, inclusive community project.

The YL+P_ Library Studio Gallery 2015
A place for both learning and experiencing art. The young lit and phil operates on multiple levels acting as a educational artistic library as well as a gallery space for showcasing modern, local artists alongside an open studio allowing for anyone to come and experience the artistic working process themselves. At the YL+P we champion accessable forms of art allowing for any demographic to become part of, such as graffiti street art in which anyone with a canvas and paint can create work. Alongside our regular exhibitions we set up pop-up studios throughout newcastle city centre in which any passer by can contribute. The finished works are all from community input allowing for a range of different outputs also showing newcastle how easy it is to get involved.

The Gatehouse_ Seaton Delaval Hall 2014
The concept behid the productive garden is to create a hollsitic communal garden. Providing its own produce the for its incumbant buildings; the gatehouse included acts as a visitor and education center as well as displaying local artwork from the surrounding newcastle coastline. This theme of history is key, with the blackened timber facade of the gatehouse sourced from the grounds own trees and charred to conjure images of the past fire at Seaton Deleval hall it is still recovering from, and the pitched barn styed roof conveyuing images of typical northumberland barns allowing it to sit within the context sympathetically whilst still creating an appreciative juxstaposition of old and new
